Modernist Women of Taos
An insightful curation into the diverse visions of the women of the Taos Modernist era, the installation in our North Gallery features artworks by seven legendary female artists. Beginning chronologically with Gene Kloss’ early 1900s push into the field of fine art, with her figurative prints and androgynous identity hinting towards the changes to come, up to Ann Saint John Hawley’s bold expression of the abstracted form dancing in commencement of the end of the modernist era.
Our South Gallery depicts Taos contemporaries that followed in the steps of the modernist artists before them, including female artists Shaun Richel and Marsha Skinner.
